Personal review

Tecmo World Wrestling is a pretty innovative wrestling game. You have your choice of a number of characters, all of whom are patterned after real-life wrestlers. However, it's the extra bells and whistles that make this one special. Wrestlers can train before matches to build up their power through push-ups, sit-ups, and squats. During the match, a commentator at the bottom of the screen will call the action. Should you hit your opponent with one of your specialty moves, the game will play a short cinema to show off its devastating power. Tecmo World Wrestling is probably worth a try if only to see these features in action.

Official description

It's your call from the opening bell to the final pin. Select your wrestler and take on any challenge. Every bodyslam, every cobra twist and piledriver brings you closer to victory. Will you be the one receiving the Tecmo World Wrestling Championship Belt?
